Rio 3

Will try to finish up my week in Rio but it is so difficult. 
I experienced a lot which makes it hard to just brush over...
 
Anyway we paid a visit to "Samba city" where all the preparations were in full bloom for the upcoming carnival.
 
 
This area was built by the city of Rio to allow a place for the samba schools to practice their routines and build their floats and parade costumes. Unfortunately we were not allowed to take any pictures in there because everything had to be kept in secret before the big carnival competition. 
About 300 people were working on costumes and floats from the one school we were visiting and I think we all were stunned by the quality, creativity and artistic skills from all these people. 
 
 
 
These are just two of maybe 100 different ideas of costumes. 
 
No time for a brake...
 
Samba city is the place where samba schools strive to make all their dreams into reality. 
And just looking at all these fantastic creations, feeling the strong teamspirit and all the hard work that take place for only 1 hour and 22 minutes once a year during this competition left me with a wow feeling. 
If they win, the school not only win money and a trophe but also the acknowledgement and reputation of being a good school which means more investors, more sponsors and more people willing to devote their time. 
 
 
Just this school seemed to have accomplished a lot ...
 
Seem to have problem again uploading pictures...
will be back!!!
